Rachel Confirms s7 Casting Spoilers

 


I'd like to take this opportunity to say that whether or not you loved/hated Ashley Seaver, Rachel Nichols as an actress is a human being who did not deserve to be sidelined liked this. She obviously loved her job and her co-workers, and is justifiably upset about this. 

CBS pulled the same stunt with Rachel that they did with AJ and Paget last year. Please keep that in mind. CBS might have fixed one of the symptoms by bringing AJ and Paget back, but they have in no way solved the problem of treating their actresses as disposable.

If you can, please send Rachel some love on twitter.

Would you mind supplying links for CBS blackballing Paget? Because I get the idea that if this had actually happened, she would not be too keen to return to Criminal Minds next season. I also doubt CBS puts that much effort into one member of one cast on one show. The fact that they were so quick to let both AJ and Prentiss go is proof enough of that. I'm sure they would have gone on had her pilot been picked up.
